  Expert About mi:Mitchell
Mitchell was a marvelous teacher whose students adored her because she held them to a very high standard of intellectual achievement (despite the fact that they were "only" women!) and because she believed in them.
Mitchell, since emerging with her first album thirty years ago, has been one of the most stylistically restless artists on the scene, often keeping her fans wondering what her next record would sound like, and in the process exploring new artistic ground and adding more musical facets to her style.
Mitchell said that as she was exploring the sounds the instrument could make, she found one rather like a marimba that she liked, but didn't really have a song on which it fit.

 Shire (Middle-earth)
According to Tolkien, the Shire measured 40 leagues (222 km, 120 Númenórean miles) from the Far Downs in the west to the Brandywine Bridge in the east, and 50 leagues (278 km, 150 miles) from the northern moors to the marshes in the south.
The only strangers to enter the Shire were the Dwarves travelling on the Great Road that ran through the Shire to and from their mines in the Blue Mountains, and the occasional Elves on their way to the Grey Havens.
The industrialization of the Shire was based on Tolkien's witnessing of the extension of the Industrial Revolution to rural Warwickshire during his youth, and especially the deleterious consequences thereof.
